Practice Session
My pit table under ccover was 107 F. The track was 137 F. I got in a couple of long runs. I changed to Sorex 36 tires due to high temps. I actually puffed up the battery by running it too long. It was not so much the power drain from running a 13.5, but the fact that the battery started at 107F and then was heated by 137 F track air and by power drain. Anyway I kept my second run to 8 minutes to avoid this. The car ran well with low-medium traction.
